Im a big fan of this genre but now feel like i have seen the most worthwhile seeing.

Could anyone recommend spy/secret agent style movies in the style of bourne ultimatum, james bond etc but obviously not those ones! lol :)

Oh and preferably the more modern ones!:cool:
 
You've probably seen Enemy of the State but that's good as is Cypher which is underrated, although it also has a sci-fi element.
 
Taken

Although not a movie, Burn Notice is excellent. I'm a big fan of the genre too, and love Burn Notice as it unmasks the spy secrets a bit.
 
I've got a huge list here, but if you read it, I will have to kill you. This is not a joke. Only read the following if you want us to find you and end your life:

I think it's on FX, although I've already watched all of the first and second seasons.

It has a mystery of the week format, taking on different jobs/guises etc. with an overarcing storyline as well.

It's really entertaining.
 
In a similar vein to The Ipcress File and Funeral in Berlin there's "The Naked Runner" (1967) starring frank Sinatra, one of my favourite Cold War spy thrillers.
 
BDB is glorious, and my fav harry palmer movie (as it's the only one i've seen :D ), and the end is supreme!!!

what about a robert redford double ..... SNEAKERS and SPY GAME (obviously)

:D

and there's the bonkers FLINT movies .....
 
The Quiller Memorandum, George C Scott is in it , got a fab score by John Barry very much takes his genre defing work to a new level.

Defense Of the Realm is very good, dont know wether you'd class it as a spy film or as a plitical thriller , Gabriel Byrne , Denholm Elliot , Gretta Schachi? & Fulton Mckay.
